Yellow Bird: Climate Change impossible to ignore

"My first thought about global warming in North Dakota and Minnesota
was, “Whoopee!” Brutally cold weather makes traveling dangerous and
limits outdoor adventures. A longer summer, spring and fall could mean
more time for gardening and make tree-, grass- and fruit-growing here
easier.

But this view is much too narrow. Polar bears that can't find
food are just one of the animals that may disappear. This extinction of
some plants and other living things also will result."
